Shaking the map

It appears that this new API means that one no longer needs Greasemonkey to do annotated Google maps (which looked broken for a while anyway.)

It’s too bad that the Geocaching.com database doesn’t allow public use of its query data, or easy RSS/XML exports, because I could imagine dozens of maps popping up showing “all my local caches, with found in red and unfound in yellow,” or something of the sort.

Update: And there’s a Yahoo! Maps API, too.
